R8's in stock during winter

I was at my local audi dealer (montreal area) over the holidays and took some pics. Out of 6 cars in the showroom there were 3 R8's, two of which are convertibles (both manual, the coupe was r-tronic) and all 3 V10's. I found it kind of odd to have this many R8's in december.

oh there was also a 4th R8 getting PDI'd for delivery today. A convertible V10 on winter tires....no pics though.

photos taken with my bb9700

Our dealer also has stock of 3 V10's. 1 coupe and 2 roadsters. They've been there for 5 months already. They not doing so well this side in terms of sales.

Sad as I loved my R8 one of the best driving cars no one seems to adore them but once you own it you love it. Italian looks, German reliability and it gets as much attention as any exotic around especially in S Fla where everything I see is an F Car or a Lambo.

Don't see too many around town here but I did a few weeks ago. It sounded awesome. I'm in love with these cars and one day I will have one.

I saw a couple in Vegas. Also, agree with Marc, the R8 is extremely underrated, especially in the V10 outfit.

Anyone know if you can add the euro V10 Grille easily to swap out from the ugly license plate bar style one?

Our dealer in Singapore has stock of 2 V10's. 1 Coupe and 1 Spyder. They've been there for a couple of months already. and if you want to order a new one you will have to wait for 6 months due to "build to order"

Easy swap, bout five minutes, the part is about $350. Been there, done that.
